Replacing the gripper with a custom one

1. To design your new end-effector, use the following drawing as reference

   

   Mounting points for the end effector on joint 5

   (Unfortunately KUKA's policy doesn't allow us to distribute more drawings than the ones found on our website,here)

2. While designing the new end-effector keep in mind that the maximum payload of the arm is 0.5kg with the existing gripper. That means that

   your end-effector + payload <= 0.5 kg + weight of existing gripper

3. To remove the existing gripper follow the instructions written here
4. To mount the new end-effector you will need 4 x M4 screws
